Omschrijving
’Though liability for what is now called psychiatric injury was first recognized and developed in cases involving accidents between strangers, the law is now developing fastest in cases where trauma arises out of a relationship between the parties - and particularly so in employment cases. Des Butler’s book carefully documents the different kinds of workplace trauma and the available legal remedies, and is a valuable addition to the growing body of literature on psychiatric injury.’ Associate Professor Peter Handford, Faculty of Law University of Western Australia, Australia ’Workplace trauma has important health and economic ramifications not only for the individuals who suffer them and their employers, but for the society in general. Yet there has been a dearth of scholarly analysis of compensation, both at common law and under statute, for psychiatric injury related to work. Des Butler’s book has filled this gap. The book provides an invaluable resource for legal and medical practitioners involved in personal injury law, for academics and policy-makers working in the area of industrial relations, work and safety, as well as statutory and common law compensation.’ Dr Danuta Mendleson, Deakin University, Australia
